Dear Families,

I hope you are enjoying the weekend!

First off, we celebrated Noah’s birthday last week.  Happy Birthday Noah and thanks for the delicious birthday treats!

Here is what you need to know for the week ahead:

 

Field Trip Information:  Both Lindbergh Kindergarten classes will be going on our fourth and final field trip to U of M- Dearborn for a pond study.  The field trip will be on Wednesday, May 31.  There is no cost for this field trip.  (Thanks to Lindbergh’s PTA for paying for our bus.)  Permission slips were sent home last Monday so if it didn’t make it home, please let me know.  If you are interested in being a chaperone, please indicate so on the bottom of the permission slip.  There is no limit to the number of chaperones who can attend. 🙂

Poem of the Week:  Tally Marks—Some students pick up the concept of tally marks really easily and others are having difficulty.  Please have your child practice making tally marks at home as we will be practicing during math workshop this week.

Last Week’s spelling words:   “ot” family:   hot   pot   dot   rot + mystery word  +  2 individual words.  Your child will be tested on these words on Tuesday.

New  Spelling Words:  “ed”  words:  bed  fed  led  red    There will be no individual words this week due to the short week.   Your child will be tested on these words next Tuesday.

Book bags:  Since I am administering the DRA (Developmental Reading Assessment) individually to each child, I will not be seeing them in the reading groups.  Therefore, your child will not be getting new books this week.
